As the pandemic has worsened, top administration officials have sought to undertake the tough, but necessary work of discrediting Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country’s leading public health official combatting the coronavirus.
“[Dr. Fauci] looks at it from a very narrow public health point of view.”
Er, that is his job and area of expertise. To ask anything different of the good doctor would be like asking an adviser on trade and economics to explain how to combat a pandemic…
How many outright boldfaced lies has the liar in chief told in the past 3+ years? And Fauci has been partially wrong a couple of time. Trumps lies are always self-serving while Fauci’s have been based on lack of knowledge of the virus because is has never been seen before.
We need some humor in these trying and troubling times…what with Trump deploying his thugs led by Barr, Covid deaths/infection rising fast AND persistent trumping gaslighting…it’s exhausting!
Dr. Fauci hasn’t been wrong a couple of times. What is being used against him are remarks taken out of context, context that should include that Fauci is a doctor/scientist and that the scientific method as it relates to novel phenomenon is couched in caution.
All this targeted material that they are trying to throw at Fauci is to try and make Trump the scientific idiot not so idiotic and oppositional.
It’s eerie how this administration parallels 1984, wherein Orwell describes the party’s hate propaganda as being able to be turned on and off at will, and directed like a flamethrower. If the enemy ceases to be Eurasia and is now Eastasia, then we were ALWAYS at war with Eastasia, and they’re accused of everything from spoiling the weather to suborning treason to putting razor blades in Oceania’s swill rations.
One moment the enemy is Hillary Clintion, then it’s Robert Mueller, then it’s Colin Kaepernick, then it’s Fauci.
It makes one wonder if the Trump zombies are issued scorecards so they can keep up with changes in the party line.
This is straight disgusting from the people who lied about, gaslighted us endlessly over and did everything they could to profit off of the pandemic and who said the cure couldn’t be worse than the disease meaning go ahead and die, oldies!
It’s not lying or wrong to change one’s recommendations over time based on newly acquired information. It is lying to make knowingly false statements and to invent ‘alternate facts’.
